Recipe Introduction


This is posted for a request. It's from a cookbook I use often-The Aust. Women's Weekly Barbecue Book-though i've never made this cheese roll. I'm only guessing at prep time, and in the blurb, it says it can actually be made up to 4 days ahead to allow the flavours to really develop.


List of Ingredients




1/2 cup chopped mixed dried fruits
1/4 cup chopped mixed glace fruits
2 tablespoons port
250g packet cream cheese
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
1 teaspoon grated orange rind
3/4 cup poppy seeds



Recipe



Steps:

1. Combine fruits in bowl, add port, cover and allow to stand for 1-2 hours.
2. Beat softened cream cheese and cheddar together in electric mixer, stir in rind and fruit mixture. Refrigerate covered for 1 hour.
3. Roll mixture into a log shape about 20cm in length, roll in poppy seeds, cover and refrigerated 24 hours.
4. Serve with crackers.
